It started raining in WA again, so all the little froglets are everywhere, including the road![]()
This little guy I found, I thought he might be dead but boy was I wrong. He's still got a lot fight in him, but I'm not sure if there's anything I can do. He looks to be 2-3 months old give or take and he's a Pacific Chorus Frog
His back leg is injured, possibly broken, he can barely hop, there's also some flesh missing but not a lot from what I can tell. Looks like there might be a little bit of prolapse going on too, but I'm not sure.
Another thing that concerned me is he has an almost perfectly round bump on his back that protrudes quite a bit. Not sure if it's a part of his injuries or something else. It looks like he has a couple of bumps on his head but I could be wrong.
My main questions are do you think he has a chance to live or am I looking at euthanasia, and what could cause that bump on his back and possibly head? I haven't given him too good of a look over because he was pretty freaked out so I want him to calm down first and I'm also at work so I have limited things I can do. I've got him in a cup with some water on the bottom until I can get him home to a hospital tank, which he doesn't seem to mind for now. He's already calmed down a lot.
I would really like to help this little guy out, but I don't want him to needlessly suffer if there's nothing I can do. Thank you!
